A mixed model allows the incorporation of both fixed and random variables within a statistical analysis, enabling efficient inferences and more information to be gained from the data. There have been many recent advances in mixed modelling, particularly regarding the software and applications. This third edition of Brown and Prescott s groundbreaking text provides an update on the latest developments, and includes guidance on the use of current SAS techniques across a wide range of applications ER -
